I got a seriously "styl'n ride" in a new Cirrus SR-22 Turbo from Oshkosh to Mitchell this afternoon.  The South Dakota Aviation community is really going all-out to help the race run smoothly.  Tomorrow there is an open-house with a good-sized crowd expected.  Amy (aka "Photo Op?") flew up from Texas.

Cirrus is a major sponsor of the race, and they had Air Graphics (the company that does the graphics for most of their planes) take designs from a Madison High-School class and create the "Spirit of South Dakota", just for the event!
